Hi

Am in the process of purchasing an existing residential property in Norwich area which has an HMO License in place.

I have been informed that I (as the new owner/landlord) will need to apply for a new license when I have ownership of the property (legal owner).

How would this work under regulation/compliance on the basis that the the existing tenants will remain in situ until August?

As I will be the new owner/landlord I assume that existing license is void? On this basis I feel that I would be in breech of the laws for not having an HMO license in place.

How does it work on this basis, especially for any reason that my application gets refused after the purchase has gone through with tenants living there?

Thanks
